My fiance and I in debt.

I’m a full-time college student. He had to quit school to work, so we could survive. He is two months behind on his bills. We haven’t paid rent this month. I can’t go to school because I don’t have gas in my car. If there is anyone who is reading this, please let me know if there is anything that I can do to get out of this.

You could apply for student loans and/or get a job yourself. Most of the full-time college kids I know also work part-time. How far away is your school? Could you walk or bike or take the bus?

Both of you need to have full time jobs. You can look into online education to work tords your degrees. Hope this helps :-)

My Fiance and myself are in a similar situation. She lives off her student loans and grants, and I pitch in working full-time at my small business. It’s really tough, and we wouldn’t be making it right now if we weren’t getting small bits of help from friends and family.

The Federal Gov’t used to give better financial aid for students before the Bush administration came into power. Right now, the best you may be able to do is find a part-time job. If you decide to take online classes, make sure that they are accredited and count towards your degree. Often, online courses may be counted differently than traditional classes.

You can try freelance writing, bookkeeping, software, transcription or customer service work at home jobs. These companies do not require any fee and pay well . List of companies(with websites) offering genuine work at home jobs is available at http://www.pcworkathome.net . Many of these companies have been in business for several years

You can also try your luck at online charities like Modest Needs, people may send donations. More information at http://www.laodn.org/
